 For example, it fails to catch exceptions from InputBuffer, e.g. due to
 short data (with a long value for some length field).  It also needs to
 have catch-all catch (catch(...) {}).

 Without this our python program could strangely crash from a remote packet
 (so I specified 'high' for severity).
